Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) Superintendent Alberto Carvalho has earned unanimous support from the district’s Board of Education on both his 2022–23 budget of $18.5 billion and his long-term vision for K–12 schools in Los Angeles.
The LAUSD—the second-largest school district in the nation—currently faces several challenges, such as student academic gaps brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, declining enrollment and funding, teacher and staff shortages, and student safety concerns in the wake of several mass shootings.
